    Yes, but most importantly will I be able to use the gym?

    I wouldn’t consider property tax deductions as subsidies, as they exist to avoid double-taxation. After paying Fed, state, local, SS and Medicare taxes, what’s left is after-tax $s. if property taxes weren’t deductible, one could find all of their after tax income eaten by even more taxes

    Let’s talk about the vast subsidies that each of these buyers will get.

    — the mortgage interest deduction
    — various property tax reductions (on both the townhouse and condo)
    — building property tax reductions / exemptions (on the condo)

    I wonder why those who complain about the “subsidies” afforded the rent stabilized tenants never talk about the much greater subsidies afforded wealthy owners.

    lets not talk about Bruce. You simply just hate success, those with more, your class warfare is unbridled.

    This is real estate porn. It is just for fun, a chance to see inside units that we may never get to see. I sure can’t afford it, but I don’t condemn others who do.

    I am glad rich folks built many of the monuments that I love on the UWS like the two towered CPW buildings and side street mansions.
    Stop ruining this website with your political agenda that makes Bill De Blasio look like Sarah Pailin.
